mistreatment in a dutch deportation-prison
05.Jun.04 - The amsterdam based action group 'autonoom centrum' has published a brochure about the mistreatment of detainees in a dutch deportation-prison. The testimony of an ex-detained refugee is at the centre of this brochure on the detention of refugees and undocumented migrants. His testimony speaks volumes about the mistreatment taking place behind the prison walls and about the ways migrants are treated as second-rate humans and regarded were throw-away products that can be removed from the western societies as soon as they become 'useles'. The full text of the brocure is available at the autonoom cenmtrum's website. [alternatively there is also a pdf version for download]
